Anyone got an R-series exhaust centre box and/or silencer for sale?

I have also found out that they are infact slick50 saloon cars. One of them is supposed to be a championship winning car.

Quick heads up, the white car will be hitting the dreaded ebay at the weekend.

These maestros are very cool would make a nice track day car. Where did you find them?

They were actually advertised on here. All I really needed was the new exhaust that was amongst all the spares they came with! But I just can't resist a bargain, especially when they're maestro shaped!

hi,what spares are you parting with? do you have an original grey steering wheel for instance?

I am hanging onto some stuff. It's all R series, mostly mechanical and a few trim bits. If you need anything just ask & I will have a rummage. I do have a std grey steering wheel but, I believe it's not an original R series one, you can see it in the pic of the inside of the white car above.

Emptied all the stuff out of the white car today and got it running and driving. I think the engine is over bored +60 and the head is very well worked. Here's a few pics for your viewing pleasure -






If anyone is interested this car is for sale now.

The suspension in the challenge kit I believe was woodhead dampers and the exhausts were standard

[VanJosh]

I believe the ones on the cars are the fixed ones, just adjustable damping. In all the stuff is a new set of leda coilovers but, I'm going to hang onto them for my red MG as that currently has fixed ones.

I'm not sure what the plan is yet. I was going to break the red one but, I think it would be a shame, it just needs a new roof.
